The U.S. did not isolate Cuba because of the missile crisis the isolation and other sanctions were in place before, and were a reaction to having a communist regime preaching destruction of freedom on their doorstep.
The missile crisis was in 1963, Castro took control of Cuba in 1958.

I am normally quiet pro American but Cuba's treatment of Cuba was and is despicable. Kennedy spent more time and Us money trying to assassinate Castro than just about anything else he did and look how he ended up.Before the crisis Cuba agreed to sign a treaty giving numerous concessions if the US would agree to leave them alone the Americans believing it too good to be true carried on making exploding cigars and poisons to unsuccessfully kill Castro and he didn't even bother to hide like Bin Laden.

The Cuban Missile disaster became the style of large adventure for the individuals because they had to compromise and make an contract with the Russians no longer to invade Cuba once the Russian missiles were taken out of Cuba.

You're phrasing the question incorrectly. The U.S. isolating of Cuba was a direct result of Castro's decision to host foreign missiles capable of striking U.S. cities. Prior to the missile crisis, the U.S. government treated Cuba like any other Western hemisphere nation with a country it didn't like: the CIA tried to topple it! Castro did something about it, and it scared the pants off of the U.S.

Sounds like a question on a history exam. I think Kennedy used the situation to keep a dagger being put at the throats of the Western World.
